PARNELL's APPEARANCE.


| How IL Has Reen A1fsapprehended and
| Grossiy Exaggerated
| Nature has stamped on the person Of
this remarkable man the qualities Of
his mind and temperament His face is
singularly handsome. and at first
glance might even appear too delicate
TO be strong. The nose Is long and
thin and carved. not nodded; the
mouth Is well cut; the cheeks are pal
lid; the forehead is perfectly round. and
as striking as the forehead OF the first
Napoleon. and the eyes are dark and
unfathomable. The passer-by in the
streets. taking casual look at those
beautifully chiseled features and at the
air Of perfect tranquility. would be in
clined to think that Mr.. Parncll was a
very handsome young man who proba-
bly, had graduated at West Point and
would in due time die in a skirmish
with the Indians But a closer look
would show the great possibilities be-
meath this face. The mouth. especial
" the under lip, speaks Of q grip that
never loosens; the eye. when II is
fixed, tells Of the infexible will be-
meath, and the tranquility Of the cx-
preston Is the tranquility Of the nat
ure that wills and wins. Similarly
with his figure. 1t looks slight al
most to frailty; but a glance will
show that the bones are large, the hips
broad and the walk firm; in fact, Mr.
Parnell tramps the ground rather
than walks. The hands are
firm, and even the way they
grasp pencil has . significance.
This picture Of Parnell Il very unlike
the portraits which have been formed
Of him BY the Imagination Of those who
have never met him. When he was !
first in the storm and stress Of the era |
Of obstruction he used to be portrayed |
in the truthful pages Of English comic
journalism with battered hat. long |

portraits after this fashion appear in
the lower class journals that think the
caricaturc Of the Irish face the best OF
I'll possible jokes. Parnell il passion
stely fond Of Ireland; is happier and
on It's soil than in any other
part Of the world. and is almost blgotcd
q the intent;Iy Of his patriotism. But
lc might easily be taken for native 81

irst years Of his life in English schools

rom his American mother he has got.
n all probability, the healthy pallor.
ne delicate chisclling. the impassivc

EASTER Eggs-Several of our young
friends since The services and incidents
Of last Sunday, (Easier-day) have asked
US the origin OF the custom OF making
presents or ornaments Of colored eggs
ON the occasion. Gobelin, in his ere
Iigious History Of the Calendar" tells
us That the custom Of giving eggs ut
Easter is TO be traced back to the theol-
ogy and philosophy Of the Egyptians,
Persians, Gauls, Greeks and Romans
among all Of whom an egg was the en-
blem Of the universe, the work OF the
Supreme Deity.
The custom has been handed down
and has become by some associated witt
the celebration Of Easter, though II hsi
no historical connection with the Chris
tian observance OF the resurrection nel
the Jewish observance of the passover
To remove the contents OF the egI
puncture a tiny hole in each end OF tht
egg, and blow out the contents FOR thu
decoration, spray Of the lilies OF tn

Easter hly--indeed anything your fame.
or taste may dictate, may be painted Oh
the surface. A single flower with
couplet underneath; flock Of SINAI
birds, broken branch with nest wei
filled with tiny eggs, all are charmin
little studies. When the eggs are fin
ished, string them on ribbon, with bow
and loops on each end. A very prett
way is to gild the eggs before putting 0
the decoration. Analine dies are be-
for coloring.

AsuggestiOn to the travelling Public.

Tourists, emigrants and marines find
that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is a
medicinal safeguard against unhealthful
influences, upon which they can i'm
plicitly rely since it prevents thesefIects
OF vitiated atmosphere, unaccustomed
or unwholesome diet, bad water, or 9th
er conditions unfavorable to health. On
long voyages, or journeys in attitudes
adjacent to the equator, it is especially
useful as preventive OF the febrile
complaints and disorders Of the stomach,
liver and bowels, which are apt to at
tack natives Of the temperate zone so
journing or travelling in such regions,
and it is an excellent protection against
the influence OF extreme cold, sudden
changes of temperature, exposure to
damp or extreme fatigue. 1t not only
prevents intermittent and remittent ie-
YER, and other diseases OF malarial
type, but eradicales them, sact which
has been notorious for years past in
North and South America, Mexico, the
West Indies, Australia, and other coun~
tries. Apr. 16-lm
